Get ready for the Angry Birds movie, slated to arrive in 2016. Rovio not only announced the animated film, but also named its producer, John Cohen, who also produced Despicable Me. Former Chairman of Marvel Studios and executive producer of Iron Man, David Maisel, will come on board as executive producer.

“John’s an exceptionally talented producer, and we’re delighted to have him join the flock,” said Mikael Hed, CEO of Rovio Entertainment. “With John’s hands-on producer background and David´s expertise in establishing and running his own successful studio, these two are the dream team for making a movie outside the studio system. Both professionals have the ideal skills and vision to achieve incredible things.”

Space Hulk is on its way to making a comeback. Development studio Full Control partnered with Games Workshop to bring a PC, Mac, and iOS title to market in 2013, with the hopes of capturing the classic turn-based strategy experience in a video game. In it, players will lead a team of Space Marine Terminators against alien Genestealers aboard a ship adrift in deep space.

“Since playing the board game decades ago I have always wanted to recreate this slice of Warhammer 40,000 as a computer game. Now we can finally bring the board game to life in glorious 3D full of scary Genestealers and mighty Terminators fighting for human kind,” said Thomas Hentschel Lund, CEO of Full Control. “As huge fans of the Space Hulk board game and the Warhammer 40,000 universe in general, we are delighted that Games Workshop has given us the opportunity to work with this iconic license and bring our version of Space Hulk into the hands of all fans out there”.

Zen Shapes: The Way of the Brush is free for a limited time. Released for both iPhone and iPad, the addictive puzzler tasks players with drawing as many calligraphy shapes as possible before the Queue overflows. Sixty puzzles should keep users busy for quite some time, while various power-ups (bombs, freezes) will give them an edge. [Download]

Also free is Extinction Squad, from Adult Swim. This over-the-top and at times hilarious romp lets players capture endangered critters with a trampoline, even a humongous whale that takes up much of the screen. Miss, and the poor creature splats, leaving behind a small amount of gore. [Download]
